Envoy manages to get Walter dressed without waking him, although he wakes shortly after while she's busy hiding crystals. At first the man thinks he's dead, because of fuzzy dreams of 'angels' and the notion that Envoy was dead too. She convinces him otherwise, and ends up explaining what happened to him before she arrived.
With that out of the way, it's a race to make the base seem habitable, which means building an actual kitchen and dining area instead of using the lab and hangar for cookouts.
They make it just in time, as Icarus and Born-In-War arrive several hours later bearing pizza. Icarus notices the area where Inala was, but Envoy drags him to the kitchen before he can comment on it. There they heat up the pizza, which Envoy has always thought of as a sacred food for dragons and her reaction to her first taste is bit worrying to her guests.
